R3303-HP HSR6800 Routers Layer 3 - IP Routing Configuration Guide

23
RIP can serve as the IGP running between CE and PE on a BGP/MPLS VPN network. For related
information, see MPLS Configuration Guide.
• RIP FRR
• BFD
RIP periodically sends route update requests to neighbors. If no route update response for a route is
received within the specified interval, RIP considers the route unreachable. This mechanism cannot detect
link faults quickly. After BFD is configured for RIP, and BFD detects a broken link, RIP can quickly age out
the unreachable route, thus avoiding interference to other services.
